When to do a fecal exam?

A fecal exam can be done 2 times per year- I guess it depends on how often you want to take your bearded dragon in- I get mine in 2 times per year-- usually in the fall before brumation and in the spring- I also had blood work done this last time just so we have something to go by the next time its done- but then again its up to you- its always good to get a repore going w/ your vet about your dragon and they can get to better know him before he gets sick

How long have you had him? Is he still showing signs of relocation stress? If hes not quite settled in I would wait - we are still in spring and you can always get him in to a reptile vet for a check up like in May sometime or even June-- the warmer the better outside - I live in MN so its cold here still or chilly I should say --- I try an do it every 6 months but it depends on the weather here too -

Hi there, I would hold off until he's much larger unless he starts showing signs of losing weight, going off food, etc.
